Volume 2 Chapter 31 The Pursuit of Happiness

"You said you don't learn this or that, you fight and kill all day long, don't say that it doesn't fit your identity, where is there a girl!"

"No, that's what I love. “

"My good daughter, what do you want to do?"

"Hmm...... Be a hero, live a free and unfettered life!"

That's what Amoxys said to his mother, and that's what he did. Although she lost her father when she was a child, he died for her country, she was the valiant king of Athens, and she was a hero to the people.

The Athenians were not afraid of death, and they considered it honorable and necessary to fight and even die to protect their loved ones.

So Amoxys didn't feel bad. did not form a depressed personality because of this, on the contrary, because her mother was busy with state affairs when she was a child, she had no time to take care of her, so she developed a high-flying and domineering character, daring to speak and laugh, dare to fight, dare to make trouble, and laugh when she was happy. When you are sad, you are miserable, and you don't know what sorrow is.

But at the age of fourteen, everything changed.

In the autumn of 573, Queen Rainer suddenly fell ill and her health deteriorated rapidly, and she died in less than a month.

Everything came so suddenly, from the ministers of state to the common people could not accept this sudden change, Socrates, who was the first executive of Athens at the time, saw that the monarch was in mourning, and if the situation was not stabilized immediately, foreign countries would inevitably take this opportunity to invade Athens. It is imperative that you take the throne immediately for Princess Amosis.

At the same time, Socrates ordered the border defenders not to take strict precautions, especially from the direction of the Gath Empire, and recently the armies of other countries have frequently exercised on the border, apparently the exercises are actually the deployment of troops.

Socrates' keen instincts told him that war was likely to start, and there was also a mystery as to why Queen Reyna died suddenly.

According to the Athenian rules, when the old lord dies and the new king ascends the throne, he should do a funeral after the happy event.

In this way, Amosis Muna accepted it all, though she probably had no idea what she was accepting.

On the day of Queen Reina's funeral, Amoxys did not cry like a child, she just stood silently and watched her mother be buried.

When all the dust settled, she quietly slipped out of the palace alone, wandering aimlessly, and for some reason, she suddenly went to the woods where she had agreed with Yu'er to practice martial arts.

Amoxys stood in the woods, looking at everything familiar, but now it was gone. She took out her sword and danced slowly with one move, and although the sword moves were still wonderful, they lost their vitality. Practicing and practicing, her tears could no longer be stopped. Although the brave character of the Athenians led her strong, she was a girl with feelings after all, and slowly recalled her mother's voice and smile, and finally began to cry like a child, until the heavens and the earth were sad, and the birds and beasts cried for it.

She cried not only for her mother, but also for herself, and since she ascended the throne, she has ceased to be the person who can live without restraints.

Amoxys loved his country, her people, and her mother, and the whimsical words she had said as a child to be a hero had become unattainable dreams.

Amoxys cried because there was no hope in life anymore, no one was gentle with herself, everyone just treated herself as a princess of a country, and no one ever approached her young heart. Only his mother, only from her can feel warmth, but now, even her mother has left, and there are no relatives since.

There are many, many reasons why people cry, but there is a moment when the unknown one wants to cry.

Tired of crying, she fell into a deep sleep on the lavender floor of the woods, and she had endured too much these days.

After some time, Amoxys felt a warm hand gently wiping away tears for herself. Amoxys opened his eyes, only to find that the sky was full of stars, the moon was in the sky, and it was already dark. The bright moonlight reflected on a gray-haired, wrinkled, but very kind old woman beside him.

Beside her, stood a little girl.

"Yu'er!" Amoxys shouted in surprise, and then hugged Yu'er and cried again.

When he had enough of crying, Amoxys asked, "How did you get here?"

"Have you forgotten? We have agreed that in three years' time, today, the Prophet will foreshadow your fate. ”

"Prophet?"

"It's this old woman!"

The Prophet only looked at Amosis's eyes lovingly, and asked gently, "Son, I know you are sad, is there anything I can say to my mother-in-law?"

"I don't know what I'm going to live for, I feel like it's dark and I can't see anything. ”

The old woman took out a pearl from her bosom that shone with a holy white light, tapped it on the forehead of Amosis, and then said: "Child, don't be afraid, have you seen this bead, it is called the Demon Bead, and a hero of the world will come to you with this in the future." ”

"Looking for me?"

"Well, even if you become a princess of Athens, you will become a queen in the future, but that doesn't mean that you have to live only for others, you can also pursue happiness. In the future, you will fall in love with this hero, and he will definitely not disappoint you. So no matter how rough life is, don't lose hope, wait quietly, wait for your happiness, your bright future......"

Amosis recalled what the Prophet had said to him when he met him that day. Over the years, no matter how cruel the reality is, no matter how dark the future is, I have persevered, just because I firmly believe that my intended person will end my loneliness by descending colorful auspicious clouds from the sky.

He did come, and was willing to give his life for a stranger to me, and he was a hero!

Thinking of this, Amoxis quickly shook his head, what am I thinking, Xue Zong is not dead yet, didn't I curse him!

No, I must find a way to save him, and I have to fight for my own happiness. Amoxys convened a meeting overnight and demanded that a notice be posted across the country that anyone who could save Xue Zong would be rewarded with 10,000 coins.

The next day, the news of Xue Zong spread quickly all over the country, and people heard that the person who rescued the princess was coming, but he was seriously injured, and they were very anxious.

Some doctors with a little ability volunteered to treat Xue Zong's illness, although some people didn't know what kind of disease Xue Zong had, they donated all kinds of home remedies at home, and some even donated precious medicinal materials that had been treasured for many years. But no matter who came, they couldn't say exactly what kind of illness Xue Zong had, let alone treat it.

Just when everyone was at a loss, the notice posted at the gate of the city attracted the attention of a woman wearing a black robe and a black veil masked.
